Aya Zahavi Feiglin “America” EP

Aya is known for her connection to more rocky music especially as part of her band Kol Hachatichim Etzli).

But on this incredible EP she decided to take her rock attitude and amazing voice to a more electro pop direction with exploding music which makes her melancholic lyrics about the day to day life and feelings hurt more but in a bitter sweet way.

CohenBeats “Daily Affirmations”

Mixing old Israeli music samples with hip hop tunes and funky vibes CohenBeats (Michael Cohen) is connecting again the Israeli landscapes to the LA hip hop scene.

This connection doesn’t make much sense in the beginning but after you have listened to this album it will surly make a lot of sense. Nothing less is expected from one of the first Israeli hip hop visionaries.

Lola Marsh “Remember Roses”

One of the most anticipated albums of 2017 and all the waiting really paid off. 13 heartbreakingly beautiful songs crafted by Yael Cohen, Gil Landau and their amazing band connecting all to one record.

“Remember Roses” is filled with sadness and happiness and Yael’s incredible voice (if Lana Del Rey and Dolly Parton would be sisters Yael for sure could be the third sister). You must catch them performing live!

Omer Adam “Acharei Kol Hashanim”

Omer Adam is the prince of the Middle Eastern pop, ruling the radio playlists and top selling each of his albums.

On his latest record, “Acharei Kol Hashanim”, he’s taking a new direction with beautifully crafted ballads alongside his familiar dance tunes and for such a young artist (he’s only 24) his ballads are talking from a point of view of a much older artist.

But thanks to his deep and interesting voice he’s successfully telling the his stories in this album.

Sivan Talmor “Fire – Live at Bauer Studios”

After the success of her second album “Fire”, Sivan and her band went to Germany to record a live concert at the Bauer Studios which became this album.

It’s a beautiful companion to the original LP with reinterpretations of songs from “Fire” and beautiful covers and re-imagination of songs from her Hebrew debut LP translated to English, which gives the listeners a fuller version of Sivan’s beautiful music and her lyrics.

Victoria Hanna “Victoria Hanna”

Victoria Hanna’s much anticipated debut album is exploring the language and the vocal sounds of ancient Hebrew which can sound a bit boring but this album proofs how wrong we were thinking that.

Divided to two parts that hold each other, the first part produced by Tamir Muskat (Balkan Beat Box and many other projects) and focuses on the power of speech and letters and the second part that focuses on the voice and melody produced by the sound artist Frank Van Der Wei.

Victoria Hanna takes us to her exploration voyage and gives us this incredibly beautiful songs to keep on with the journey inside of us.

Yoni Livneh “Harofe Lishvurey Lev”

I fell in love with Yoni when he released his debut back in 2014 and made me to believe in a new pop era in Israel. And then came his follow up and made me 100 percent believe he’s actually the voice of his/our generation.

8 smart-pop songs, some of them in collaboration with other musicians and all of them with Yoni’s amazing lyrics and his beautiful voice. And let’s not forget his compositions which make you want to fly with joy as much as they make you want to cry alone in the dark. 8 masterpieces!
